Hasbro announced Yahtzee: One Piece, a themed version of Yahtzee that comes with Luffy’s Straw Hat, dice, and other items inspired by the anime and manga. It is available for $23.99 and, cosmetic elements aside, plays like any other version of the dice-based game.
Like many of the Hasbro Yahtzee sets, this comes with everything necessary to play the game. Rather than most games, the sheet only keeps track of how many Monkey D. Luffy, Roronoa Zoro, Nami, Usopp, Sanji, and Chopper faces come up each turn. Each die has Luffy in the 1 spot, Zoro in 2, Nami as 3, Usopp as 4, Sanji as 5, and Chopper as 6. (This is also the order in which the characters essentially join the Straw Hat Pirates.) Since the numbers are also present on each face, you could also play a more traditional game that includes straights and full houses as well. A set of five themed dice, the themed scoring sheet pad, and a pencil come with the set.
As for the replica of Luffy’s straw hat, it is both decorative and designed to be used with the game. You could use it when rolling the dice instead of a cup or your hands. It is made of yellow plastic and designed to look like the one he wears in the show.
Here’s the full gallery showing how the item will look:
This is one of multiple One Piece variants of existing board, card, and dice games. For example, there’s a version of Monopoly inspired by the series. Standard decks of playing cards show up. Not to mention the existing One Piece Card Game is available worldwide.
The Yahtzee One Piece version is available now. The first season of the One Piece live-action adaptation is on Netflix now, with season 2 on the way. The anime is on both Netflix and Crunchyroll. Viz Media handles the manga outside of Japan.
